Utah Monthlies 2021

[BiggaBullfrog]

DUE TO COVID-19 REGULATIONS, WE HAVE SPECIAL RESTRICTIONS ON OUR EVENTS. PLEASE READ AND BE FAMILIAR WITH THE RULES IN THE SPOILER BELOW IF YOU PLAN ON ATTENDING.

Spoiler Alert!

Big news! Here in Utah we're lucky enough to be moving towards normalization! With things getting better, Game Haven has told us that we can start holding our Monthly tournaments at their location again!

While this is incredible news, there are restrictions that we need to follow, so please be aware of them!

First off, our events are required to be restricted to 16 players maximum. That means we will have a strict RSVP policy in place. If you plan on coming, be sure to let us know so we can have you on the list. I'll have a running list of RSVP's in the OP of the thread, so if you want to come make sure you bug me or another organizer ( @Leaf_It @BodaciousBlood @Scaperedude ) to make sure we get you on the list. With that, if you're not sure that you can make it, we'd like to kindly suggest that you don't RSVP until you're certain so that we don't have lower availability than might actually be the case. We can keep a running list of maybe's like we usually do, but we need to know for sure before game day. 16 is about our average for tournaments anyway, but we don't want to have to turn anyone away if at all possible.

For those who come on game day, there are further instructions that we'll need to follow:

• Our start time is different from usual to avoid event overlap. We'll be starting at 1:00 PM.
• Face coverings are required for event play in the store.
• Sanitize your hands when you enter the store.
• Refrain from touching another person's pieces.
• Sanitize your hands and game station after each game (we will have some hand sanitizer and such provided to help with this)
• And this should go without saying, but if you are or recently have been sick come game day, please take one for the team and stay home.

Also please note when cleaning stations that alcohol droplets left on plastics, or paint, can cause permanent damage if allowed to sit long enough. Please ensure that your hands have properly dried before touching game pieces. Please try to refrain from getting hand sanitizer on any maps or figures.

We're excited to be able to have another game day! Again, be sure to RSVP if you're going to make it! Be sure to keep making smart decisions out there so we can keep on track to bigger and better gatherings in the future!

Come join us in our fourth year of Monthlies!!

Next Up:

UTAH MONTHLY APRIL 2021

Location: Game Haven Sandy (9860 S. 700 E. Sandy, UT 84070)

When: April 24th, 1:00-5:00 PM

Cost: $5 (100% of entree fees go to prize support!!)

Format: Poison Your Cake
Gear up for an (essentially) new format (that's really just taking two other formats and combining them)!!

If you like cutting cake and picking poison, why not both at once!? This month, players bring 3 army pods. At the beginning of each game, both players roll the D20, and the winner gets first pick (or may defer first choice to the other player). The first pick player chooses one of their opponent's pods to play against. The second player then chooses two of their opponent's armies to play against (that will be that player's full army). The first player then chooses one of the first player's remaining two armies to play against, creating that player's full army.
Basically: Bring 3 mini armies, choose two of your opponent's mini armies to play against. Roll dice, have fun.

• Bring 3 Army Pods
• 235 Point Limit for each pod
• 10 Figure Limit for each pod
• You may not have the same Army Card in different pods
• C3V & SoV allowed, Official Marvel allowed
• Power Glyphs: Unique Attack +1, Move +2, Initiative +8, D20 +1, Wound, Healer
• Treasure Glyphs: Elixir of Speed, Belt of Giant Strength, Ring of Protection, Scarab of Invulnerability, Brooch of Shielding
• Four 50-minute Rounds

Raffle: Roll For Constitution Save
Keep track of how many figures you lose during the event. If you've lost the least at the end, you'll win a sweet prize!

Next Up:

UTAH MONTHLY FEBRUARY 2021

Location: Game Haven Sandy (9860 S. 700 E. Sandy, UT 84070)

When: February 27th, 1:00-5:00 PM

Cost: $5 (100% of entree fees go to prize support!!)

Format: Burnout
One game per round not enough for you? How about 3 to 5? We're taking @Sir Heroscape 's original format for this next monthly. You will bring three small armies, and rounds will have "sets" of mini games. The first person to beat their opponent's three armies wins! You can check out Sir Heroscape's original thread for this format here, or also check the details below for ... details.

• Bring 3 255 Point Armies
• 10 Figure Limit
• C3V & SoV allowed, Official Marvel NOT allowed this time
• None of your armies may contain the same Army Card, common or unique (no double dipping Raelin, Blade Gruts, etc.)
• At the start of the tournament, write down an order for your three armies. That is the order you will play them in each round
• Players play their armies against each other in order. Each time an army is defeated, the game will immediately end, the winning player will place their remaining figures in their start zone, and the losing player will take their next army and place it in their start zone. They do not remove wound markers, replace missing squad figures, etc.
• Figures with regenerative powers can bring back figures/heal wounds from the previous game, so bring on your Feral Trolls and Zombies!
• The first player to defeat all 3 of their opponent's armies wins
• Power Glyphs: Unique Attack +1, Move +2, Initiative +8, D20 +1, Wound, Healer
• Treasure Glyphs: Elixir of Speed, Belt of Giant Strength, Ring of Protection, Scarab of Invulnerability, Brooch of Shielding
• Four 50-minute Rounds

Raffle: Burned Out
If you play the most amount of games total within your sets, you'll be entered into a raffle for a bonus prize!

We're very excited to be starting up the Monthlies yet again! We have a new limitation of 16 players, though, so be sure to RSVP if you'd like to attend so we have you on our list!

Short version of the details above: we're playing on February 27th, 1 PM, and will be doing the Burnout format that was planned for November, then bumped to December, then canceled and brought back now. It's a new format to the Utah scene so wear your firepants!

In!

Also curious about the limit. Is that the game stores decision or does Utah have specific restrictions? Cause it used to be 16

Neato!

Good question. From what I know it’s coming from the store, but I’ll tag @BodaciousBlood for it since he was the one who actually talked to the them.

[Climbing ice]

I will RSVP for this!

[TREX]

Ill get with Dart48 to see if he wants to go down. I may be in. Call me a maybe.

Awesome possum, got you both added in!

[UtahScott]

I get to bring three losing armies instead of just one?
That's 300% better.



uRS-ViP!


NOTE: The OP's date needs to be changed, not Feb. 21.

great! yeah, cause if we can wiggle 2 more out of them (like I really don't see why we can't just have 16 like before), that would be preferred for the "perfect tournament number"

[BodaciousBlood]

They only have the green tables available for us. I will go ahead and say that we can squeeze 16 into that space.

Small maps and all. We will also just need to be very strict about mask and sanitation procedures. It is a privilege to use their facility. We want to present our very best, as to support Game Haven.
